DICKIE LE DAVOIR bounced back to form in a claimer at Southwell last week, but he's equally at home on the Polytrack and remains on a winning mark despite a 4lb rise. He can follow-up back in handicap company as there should be a decent pace with the likes of Welsh Inlet and Liberal Lady in the field. Not much separated the latter pair at Lingfield last time, while Replicator is another who likes to be up with the pace and he went close in a lower grade sprint here last month. Meia Noite has yet to score, but she found only one too good at Wolverhampton three weeks ago and should be thereabouts again.
